This short book about jQuery Plugins is intended to quickly get you up to speed with core concepts, which enable you to start building plugins of your own.
Experienced developers know that well-written jQuery plugins can reduce bugs, increase efficiency, improve collaboration, and save time. In jQuery Plugin Development in 30 Minutes, Duchnik will show you how to write clean and efficient jQuery plugins that are easy to maintain and collaborate on.

Handling events
Plugin options
Setters and Getters
Styling, CSS, and themes
Callbacks
Browser and mobile support
File organization and versioning

jQuery Plugin Development in 30 Minutes also comes with bonus content, including sections on jQuery methods, utilities, selectors, and events, as well as a jQuery glossary. jQuery Plugin Development in 30 Minutes is intended to be a short but productive read — the intention of the author is to avoid the fluff and filler that make up 80% of most programming books, and just get straight to the point!
